Start TargetID : 0 Start Bus : 0 Logical drive status values: Okay (OKY) Volume is Active and drives are functioning properly and user data is protected if the current RAID level provides data protection. Degraded (DGD) Volume is Active and the user's data is not fully protected due to a configuration change or drive failure; a data resync or rebuild may be in progress. Inactive (OKY) Volume is inactive and drives are functioning properly and user data is protected if the current RAID level provides data protection. Inactive (DGD) Volume is inactive and the user's data is not fully protected due to a configuration change or drive failure; a data resync or rebuild may be in progress. Physical device status values are as follows: Online (ONL) The drive is operational and is part of a logical drive. Hot Spare (HSP) The drive is a hot spare that is available for replacing a failed drive in an array. Ready (RDY) The drive is ready for use as a normal disk drive or it can be, but has not been, assigned to a disk array or hot spare pool. Available (AVL) The hard disk drive may or may not be ready, and it is not suitable for inclusion in an array or hot spare pool (i.e., it is not spun up, its block size is incorrect, or its media is removable). Failed (FLD) Drive was part of a logical drive or was a hot spare drive, and it failed. It has been taken offline Standby (SBY) This status is used to tag all non-hard disk devices. FORMAT The FORMAT command performs a low-level format of a disk drive. This operation can only be performed on a physical disk. FORMAT cannot be used on an IR volume or a hot spare. Syntax cfggen format [noprompt] Parameters [noprompt] A SAS controller number between 0 and 255. Enclosure number and Bay number that identifying the disk drive that will be formatted. Eliminates warnings and prompts. WARNING! Performing a low-level format on a hard disk drive will result in the destruction of all data stored on that disk drive. The operation cannot and should not be interrupted; doing so may result in irreparable damage to the hard disk drive. Operation Unless noprompt is included on the command line, warning messages will be displayed. You will be required to properly answer a series of prompts or the command will be aborted. The answers are case sensitive and must be entered in upper case. 46 Configuring the Controller Offline

Logical drive status values:
Okay (OKY)
Volume is Active and drives are functioning properly and user data is
protected if the current RAID level provides data protection.
Degraded (DGD)
Volume is Active and the user's data is not fully protected due to a
configuration change or drive failure; a data resync or rebuild may be in
progress.
Inactive (OKY)
Volume is inactive and drives are functioning properly and user data is
protected if the current RAID level provides data protection.
Inactive (DGD)
Volume is inactive and the user's data is not fully protected due to a
configuration change or drive failure; a data resync or rebuild may be in
progress.
Physical device status values are as follows:
Online (ONL)
The drive is operational and is part of a logical drive.
Hot Spare (HSP)
The drive is a hot spare that is available for replacing a failed drive in
an array.
Ready (RDY)
The drive is ready for use as a normal disk drive or it can be, but has
not been, assigned to a disk array or hot spare pool.
Available (AVL)
The hard disk drive may or may not be ready, and it is not suitable for
inclusion in an array or hot spare pool (i.e., it is not spun up, its block
size is incorrect, or its media is removable).
Failed (FLD)
Drive was part of a logical drive or was a hot spare drive, and it failed.
It has been taken offline
Standby (SBY)
This status is used to tag all non-hard disk devices.
FORMAT
The FORMAT command performs a low-level format of a disk drive. This operation can only
be performed on a physical disk. FORMAT cannot be used on an IR volume or a hot spare.

<Encl:Bay>
Enclosure number and Bay number that identifying the disk drive that
will be formatted.
[noprompt]
Eliminates warnings and prompts.
WARNING!
Performing a low-level format on a hard disk drive will result in the destruction
of all data stored on that disk drive. The operation cannot and should not be interrupted; doing
